Addgene inc human pak1
Circulating levels of norepinephrine and angiotensin II are elevated during chronic hypertrophic stress. Activation of the β 1 AR elicits G s -dependent activation of adenylyl cyclase, leading to cAMP production and protein kinase A (PKA) activation. Active PKA phosphorylates substrates critical for excitation-contraction coupling. AT1R activation leads to Rac1 activation and promotes Rac1 S -palmitoylation cycling. S -palmitoylated Rac1 is required to evoke dephosphorylation of PKA substrates and dampen excessive adrenergic signaling that promotes cardiac maladaptation, likely through <t>Pak1-dependent</t> activation of PP2A. Upon loss of Rac1 palmitoylation cycling at Cys-178 (as observed in Rac1 cKI hearts), PP2A-mediated antagonism of PKA substrate activity is not properly regulated, resulting in hyperphosphorylation of PKA substrates that chronically promotes cardiac decompensation, systolic dysfunction, and adverse hypertrophic remodeling.
